Distribution of Policies Attached to Users

Overview

The "Distribution of Policies Attached to Users" widget visualizes how IAM policies are distributed across your IAM users. This widget helps track the policies each user has, ensuring that permissions are allocated appropriately and consistently across your environment.

Why It Matters

For IT Engineers:

1. Policy Auditing:

   • Helps ensure users are only assigned the policies that are necessary for their roles.

2. Efficient Management:

   • Provides a clear overview of policy distribution, making it easier to identify and resolve any inconsistencies or misconfigurations.

For Security Engineers:

1. Compliance:

   • Ensures that IAM policies are aligned with security best practices and compliance requirements.

2. Access Control:

   • Helps prevent unauthorized access by ensuring that users do not have unnecessary policies or permissions attached.
